Ruminating

[copingwithcomedy]

I can't stop thinking about how anxious I am and how tight my chest is and I'm always worried I'm going to feel worse. And its impossible to distract myself because its so bad.

Hi. I can relate. Do you have friends and family nearby? I try to spend time with other people when they are available but I don’t want to bother people all the time. That’s why I’m using this app, so I can find a supportive community. What has helped you cope in the past??

[copingwithcomedy in reply to Dani0431]

Yeah I do. Just talking to people who relate about it helps I think. And if possible distracting myself with something fun but a lot of the time I can't.

Hi new friend...someone once told me, "what we think is what we get".

Wishing for a different results isn't possible unless we change our way

of thinking and doing.

It is absolutely possible to change your way of thinking. It take time and

practice but it can and will happen. Let me get back to you with some starter

videos from YouTube (my own go to)

Be right back, meanwhile, pull your shoulders down away from your ears

just breathe. xx

Hi It's Agora1 again. Didn't forget you.

Life happened...A huge tree limb was hit by

lightning out front...city on the job and I'm

back to mine lol xx

Dang that's insane

Ironically, my car was not parked out front lol

Okay my friend..whenever I get into YouTube I listen to what I may recommend.

This first video is by Dr. Tracey Mark she has an amazing set of videos on YouTube

for just about every subject matter. My belief is that we need to understand what

we are struggling with before we can attack it. Her video is a little deep but well

worth watching it a couple time if need be.

"Two Things You Can Do to Stop Ruminating" by Dr. Tracey Mark (YouTube)

Since I'm also a believer in motivational music, this is just one of my favorites.

Hope it helps you believe in yourself as I believe in you.

Good Luck, plenty more from where this came from.

You've got this because you have us all on your side. People who care xx
